Wow, I swear I looked back at that very post and the rest of the thread trying to find that info before I asked. I feel like a little forum newb now. I even made a double posted a bit ago to go along with it.

Frankly, I want to see something like this

as the future of that galaxy far, far away. I want change - evolution - not stagnation and recycling.
That sounds kind of cool. Is much of Star Wars Tales like that?
Back in the 90's there was a one shot Tales from Mos Eisley comic. It was just a small collection short sci-fi stories of random people taking place somewhere in the SW universe. I loved it. I wish I could find more like it. The best part was they weren't even characters we had see or heard of before (unlike the "Tales from..." books that take background characters and give them a story).
I've always been disappointed that was a one off. That storyteller thing reminds me a bit of it and sounds like it might be the kind of stuff I am looking for.
